Your 34th print edition of AAP Magazine will present the best projects with the theme "Shapes". A shape is the form of an object or its outer boundary, contour or external surface. Look around you and notice all the dots, lines, patterns or silhouettes that surround us. Square or circle, triangle or hexagon, rectangle or oval, the choice is yours!

Show them the elements that abstract into light, texture, shape and shadow! "The rhythm of surfaces, lines and values is for me the essence of photography; composition must be a constant preoccupation... organic co-ordination of visual elements." -Henri Cartier-Bresson

Send them your images - preferably series - where shapes can not only influence the images, but can also be the subject alone. Whether architecture, portrait, landscape, nude, street or any other form of photography - classic or experimental: they are open to all genres and want to discover the best and most interesting photography from around the world.

The winners will receive US$ 1,000 in cash prizes, their winning images printed in AAP Magazine #34 and extensive press coverage. All winners will have their work published in the fourth print edition of AAP Magazine, a free copy of the magazine and their portfolio displayed in the Winners' Gallery at www.all-about-photo.com.
